So we know that our new series by early years educationspecialist Lena Engel will be a really useful resource. Lena will lookat each part of the EYFS pack in turn - the statutory framework, theprinciples into practice cards, the practice guidance, and the DVDresources - and will explain the contents, approach and implications.This week, Lena begins with the statutory framework. Make sure you don'tmiss the rest of this great pull-out series.
